I didn't vote because I have a similar dilemma. I recently got a mint RatMastiff and while I know I will use it eventually, it is hard that first time because it is so pretty. Thankfully I have a user Ratweiler to beat on while I decide on the RatMastiff. I say take your time before you decide one way or another. If it's a definite keeper than I would say use it, but if you think you may want to sell/trade it down the line it may be worth keeping new.

If you have a user of similar size and shape, save it. if not, use it! +1 You can always use it for trade material for another blade that your lusting after. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Whats the story on sterile blades. Military overuns? All the Busse kin brands used to make a lot more sterile blades... I'm not really sure what the story is... I like them with a stamp of some kind better myself, although that doesn't make me love my sterile blades any less though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I say give it some Lovin! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

There's likely going to be an even BIGGER chopper released at the Swamp soon. Maybe sell this to fund that? Just a thought

It's better to have it & not need it, than to need it & not have it.

I vote for using it. But then again I have several blades I have not used since I have others in the same size that I do use. but my rationalizing is that I have them. I am at a constant battle to keep, sale, or trade stuff that I have not used. I would rather buy used blades anyway, then the first swing or use is not too bad LOL.

I should ammend my post about using it, first, I wasnt going to use mine, but I liked the way it felt in hand sooooo much, that I found another for a user , a second gen ratweiler, it didn't feel the same, so I scored a user, first gen, STILL didn't feel as good in hand as my sage ratweiler, that is what made me turn my safe queen into a user finally

queen it if you have a similar blade. i'm not a fan of the 7" chopper category anyway, so i wouldn't bother using it.
a 7" slicer, on the other hand, i would love and endorse using.

I am in the same boat, the first swing is the hardest, once you break the ice you will smile like a little kid on Christmas, enjoy Nicely stated....and factual <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Dan
